Current company

Hartford Symphony Orchestra

Musicians · 88 employees · Founded 1936 · Hartford, Connecticut, United States

The Hartford Symphony Orchestra is Connecticut’s premier musical organization. The Hartford Symphony is widely recognized as one of America’s leading regional orchestras. We believe passionately in the performance of live symphonic music and its value in the community. To that end, the mission of the HSO is to enrich lives and community through great music. The HSO presents more than 230 concerts annually, including the Masterworks Series, Pops! Series, Sunday Serenades, Discovery Concerts, HSO: Intermix, Symphony in the Schools, Musical Dialogues, and the Talcott Mountain Music Festival. The Hartford Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1934 and formally established as the Symphony Society of Greater Hartford in 1936. Angelo Coniglione, Jacques Gordon, Leon Barzin, Moshe Paranov, and George Heck were the Orchestra’s first music directors. With the appointment of Fritz Mahler in 1953, the HSO began its Young People’s Concerts and made several highly acclaimed recordings for Vanguard. In 1964, Arthur Winograd became music director and the Orchestra grew in artistic stature, performing at Carnegie Hall and other New York locations to highly favorable reviews. Under the artistic leadership of Michael Lankester from the HSO received national recognition for its programming innovations, including the popular Classical Conversations and Family Matinees, as well as a series of landmark theatrical productions. From 2001–2011, Edward Cumming led the HSO to new levels of artistic excellence and innovative programming. The Hartford Symphony Orchestra named Carolyn Kuan as its tenth music director in January 2011; she is the first woman and youngest person to hold this title.
